From the role of physical exercise in mental health to the transformative effects of dance, we uncover the profound impact of movement on our overall well-being, and explore the language of the body and how movement serves as a powerful means of communication that helps us express ourselves beyond words.

In this episode I am not talking to myself, I am talking to my friend Louis Ngo who I met in Vancouver.
He is an athlete, a movement coach, a yoga teacher, an amazing tour guide, and just generally very energetic, kind, and caring person and very passionate about what he does and about sharing his passion for movement with other people.

He is a co-founder of the Vancity Movement and he was part of Canada's Ultimate Challenge show last year.

 And as we have a conversation about movement, to make it more authentic we are of course in motion, we recorded this podcast while driving, so you might hear some background sounds.

Enjoy, get inspired, and learn useful tools to improve the quality of your life and your relationships through movement.

Please let me know what your takeaways are and what changes you are committed to implementing into your daily life.

#TTM EP. 42 - REJECTION

From a really young age, we’ve been programmed to seek approval.
Approval tells us that we are worthy, we belong, and we are part of the group.

We constantly try to get approval from others and do everything we can to avoid the opposite which is rejection.
This creates a serious issue for those who seek to grow and evolve to another level.

Topics covered in this episode:

• rejection and setting boundaries
• rejection and people-pleasing
• rejection and change
• fear of rejection
• how to prevent rejection
• the answer for dealing with rejection
• rejection and self-confidence

#TTM EP. 42 - REJECTION // SELF ENQUIRY

• think about how much time do you spend doing nothing, rejecting yourself ahead of time so you don't have to risk being rejected by the world.

#TTM EP. 41 - POSSIBILITY & IMAGINATION

When we think about possibilities and impossibilities, anything truly is possible and the reason why we are not believing in our future is because most of the time we are trying to build our future from our past.

Topics covered in this episode:

• how things come into existence
• how to figure out the HOW
• how do we know what is possible
• how to believe something that we don't yet believe

#TTM EP. 41 - POSSIBILITY & IMAGINATION // SELF ENQUIRY

• Think about what is in your imagination right now.
• Set an impossible goal for yourself, imagine a better future for yourself, and be willing to feel the discomfort that will come with it.

• Why am I not feeling confident now? What am I feeling instead and why am I choosing to think that way? What do I want my opinion of myself to be? What do I want my opinion and my thoughts about my capabilities and my abilities to be, so I can generate more self-confidence to create the results I want in my life?

#TTM EP. 38 - VICTIM MENTALITY

No one really thinks that they have a victim mentality, but the truth is: many of us have it and we don’t even know it.

Topics covered in this episode:

• difference between victim mentality and vulnerability
• how  victim mentality shows up in our life
• how to overcome victim mentality

#TTM EP. 38 - VICTIM MENTALITY // SELF ENQUIRY

• Is there someone in your life that you think is the cause of your struggle? 
• Notice how often you choose the victim mentality. Do you blame the program you’re on? Do you blame your boss for making you work? do you blame your friends for offering you drinks? Who or what are you blaming?
  That includes also, are you blaming yourself?
• Ask yourself, who am I blaming for how I feel? When I feel anger, who am I blaming? When I feel sadness, who am I blaming? When I feel rejected, who am I blaming? Am I blaming myself? Am I blaming other people, or am I being vulnerable and open and willing to feel whatever comes up?

#TTM EP. 37 - FAIL BETTER

The real reason why we're avoiding any kind of failure, is because we don't want to feel what we're going to feel when that happens.
We are avoiding something that we have complete control over, which is our reaction to failing.
We are the ones setting the expectation and we are also the ones deciding what failure means to us.

Topics covered in this episode:

• definition of failure
• why we are afraid to fail
• how to fail
• how to think about failure so it serves us
• why failing is a useful skill
• how confidence is connected to failure

#TTM EP. 37 - FAIL BETTER // SELF ENQUIRY

• Are you failing enough? Are you failing by taking action or inaction?
• This week, do something new, something that you're pretty sure going to fail.

#TTM EP. 35 - UNREALISTIC VISIONS

One of the first things that happen when we set any goal is that the brain seizes up and tells us why it’s a bad idea and it won’t happen.

However, when we start the goal with a different way of thinking about it (we already think that the goal is impossible and unrealistic), our brain loses its ability to scale back to comfort.

We already know that we will fail. So, now what? What does our brain argue with now?

There are people who sit around and complain and make excuses, and there are people that will light their own fire and create big things in their life.

Topics covered in this episode:

• why have unrealistic visions and set impossible goals
• importance of failure on the way to the goal
• how to use big goals to serve us
• how to take action on our unrealistic goal
• what is the HOW to get there
• how to bridge the gap between the impossible goal and our immediate reality
• how to know where we are in the process and if we are still moving towards our unrealistic goal

#TTM EP. 35 - UNREALISTIC VISIONS // SELF ENQUIRY

Think about your goal. What is the goal that you have for this year?
Pick one that matters to you most and that sounds impossible and unachievable. When you think about it, how do you feel?

What is the next possible step towards your impossible goal you can take today?
What is the next logical step based on what you did yesterday?
